Mechanistic Modeling of Wet Stirred Media Milling for Production of Drug Nanosuspensions

E. Bilgili et al.

Summary: Drug nanocrystals are widely used for enhancing the bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs in the pharmaceutical industry, with wet stirred media milling being the main process. Despite numerous review papers in the field, modeling of WSMM has not been fully covered, and more mechanistic approaches could provide a fundamental understanding for pharmaceutical engineers. Advancements in microhydrodynamic modeling were highlighted, with potential research directions including more accurate simulations and model couplings.

An alternative strategy to compensate for screw wear in gravity induced stirred mills

Priscila M. Esteves et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that maintaining a constant mill filling can improve grinding efficiency in fine grinding applications, while running at a fixed mill power may lead to decreased efficiency. The results suggest further research on utilizing increasing mill speed to compensate for the loss of power draw due to screw wear.

Industrial Vertical Stirred Mills Screw Liner Wear Profile Compared to Discrete Element Method Simulations

Priscila M. Esteves et al.

Summary: In this study, the wear behavior of agitator liner in vertical stirred mills was evaluated using the discrete element method (DEM) wear simulation. Three different mill rotational velocities were simulated to understand the wear profile and its effects on grinding mechanisms. Comparison with industrial measurements showed relative agreement, indicating the importance of proper mill velocity scale-up for accurate wear prediction.
